Questions and Answers will go up Tuesday Feb 19 HHS Secretary Mike Leavitt's science advisor, Dr. William Raub has kindly agreed to an email/blog interview with the Flu Wiki community.
He will try and address 10-12 different questions in these areas:
- The concept of shared pandemic planning responsibility between levels of government (federal, state and local), between government and the private sector, and between government and individuals
- Pending vaccine allocation plan
- Prospects for new vaccine technologies
- Prospects for new antiviral technologies
- Community mitigation
- International cooperation such as surveillance and monitoring and virus sharing
What questions shall we ask? Drop suggestions here between now and Saturday. We will choose the best 10-12 queries and give them to Dr. Raub over the weekend. His responses will be posted the week of Feb 19th (when he is available to read the comments here).
We'd like to share our appreciation for Dr. Raub's availability for this. On line interaction like this is not routine enough (as much as it ought to be), and we'd like to see if we can make this a valuable experience for the on-line community.
